The Stone Angel, Outsider and King Lear all provide this aspect in their stories.

(4.6.115-16) In this case, white hairs represent wisdom, another time white is used is when Regan speaks to Gloucester. She tells him "So white and such a traitor" (3.7.44) This meaning that he is respected and wise but he is a traitor.
